1. We stopped you going up. End of. (We may not have beaten Watford anyway)
2. It happened in your own backyard, live on Sky including wild celebrations on your own turf at the end. (and??)
3. A lot of you had given it the biggun pre-match on how you were already at Wembley. (not all of us I might add, tight game's could have gone either way)
4. The fallout since looks to have cost you your manager, if you'd won I'm sure the garden would still be rosy (He was always going to leave anyway we move on)
5. Zaha got both goals despite constant threads about him being shit. Anyone think he's still a shit Bas Savage now? (Good player agreed, took goals well)
6. We get a day out at Wembley, even of you lose it's still a great day and memory. We should also make around a million from the final. (Yes great day out but losing then your season still ends with you below us and no further forward)

Not at all Mr Zero, I thought I would have been a lot worse than I am but, from where we were 5 years ago to finishing 4th in the one of the hardest leagues in the world in front of 30K things are looking good.
Roll on next season with or without you guys.
Should Palace win Monday then bragging rights will be with them for however long they are a league above us. If Palace don't win on Monday then they have the bragging rights over us for the summer, but soon as the season starts it's back to being even again.
Disagree. If Palace lose on Monday, so what? We played 46 games over a whole season, as they did, and we finished above them. In the process we each beat one another at home. Bragging rights over all to us.
If they win on Monday, fair play to them. It would mean they beat the 3rd and 4th places in their last two matches of the season to gain promotion.

Freak result?
Win or lose on Monday, the bragging rights are with us for a very, very longtime now. You know it, I know it, everyone knows it. To think otherwise just shows you're in denial.
Don't be ridiculous, people only ever remember the winners of the play-offs. You only get bragging rights if you win on Monday as far as I'm concerned, otherwise history will consign you to being the fifth placed side in this season's Championship table.

Question for you 5 Zero, are you happy with the thread I linked, whereby many Palace fans are doing what they claimed us stupid in doing?
Where our fans after the game at yours, did rather take beating you at the Amex and going to Wembley, a near forgone conclusion and your fans hammered us for doing so.
Do you not find talking about how much you will spend on players, (even Parish has joined in this) which players they want to buy and a couple of posters even stating which teams you will beat in the Premiership, before you get past Watford.
Don't you find this thread has the potential for the same egg on face, that many of our posters were guilty of.

You mean no-one remembers us as losers of the 1991 play-off final after beating Millwall 6-2 over 2 legs? We lost our target man that summer and then got relegated the following season, so any bragging rights we had over Millwall were soon forgotten!

That is the one plus, but that is even watered down by the near £120 mill they will receive for doing so.
They could then get their stadium, which in my view is the only way they will fund it and be financially sound for a number of years.

Of course if Palace lose to Watford, history will show that Brighton finished above them in the league for two seasons on the trot.
Who knows what will happen if we play them next year but I suspect it won't be too long before we can gloat over another derby day win for the Albion!

Palace fans will have egg on their faces if they lose on Monday and bragging rights start all over again for next season. As far as I'm concerned Palace fans have been arrogant for the last 40 years , nothings gonna change.

Not bothered if they go up certs to come straight back down.
No, no they won't.
Sake, don't be ridiculous. They absolutely OWN us at the moment. We have to suck it up and beat them next season - ideally doing the double over them.

By Monday evening we will, once again, be above them in the table. Only on alphabetic order, mind.
We were better than them over 46 games, they were better than us for 46 minutes, but that's the way the play-offs work.
